Deep, dubby and minimal house - just how we like it. From a production standpoint it's clear the powers at kay here be pure, with "Netlog001.1" offering that classy drum machine programming, chord with reverb and ear-worming bassline. "Netlog001.2" adds a touch of retro-phase to its appeal, as if ushering spirits of Chicacgo house while "Netlog001.3" keeps it stripped back with some jack and atmisphere - grazie Gennerao Di Bartolomeo, bellisimo!

Emotional Rescue's vital Konduko reissue series sadly comes to an end here with a look at the label's final years.
